0:00.0	Welcome to 10 minute Bible Talks, where we connect the Bible to your life in the time it takes to get to work.
0:11.5	I'm Patrick Miller. And I'm Keith Simon. So we're here in the
0:15.9	morning of September 10th and Patrick is decked out in chief's gear. He looks like a
0:20.4	guy who just jumped on the bandwagon.

1:28.7	How does sovereignty fit in with human freedom or maybe better put human responsibility.
